Customising Incident Category Colours

Appliances assigned to an incident are coloured according to the incident category.

These colours are stored in tblIncidentCategories.UuDayRGB.

You can use industry standard HTML colour code names or the more traditional RGB values separated by commas (e.g. 255,0,0 for Red).

A handy RGB colour chart is included with Workload Modeller; use this as a reference. You can find the chart in the installation folder:

 

Any callouts belonging to uncategorised incidents OR with no defined incident category colour are shaded grey (darker than the on-shift bars).

  1. The chart is not connected dynamically to the Data worksheet, i.e. editing the data worksheet will not make any changes in the chart.
  2. The creation of the chart is a relatively slow operation (but can be batched).
  3. Day charts are based on data passing the current filters with one exception: any ‘On or After’ and ‘Before’ filters will be ignored and an ‘extended date filter’ is applied, i.e. one based not on just the incident starts being in the day of interest but the callouts’ duration intersecting the day of interest.

The following screenshot shows an 'extended date filter' reported in the Title worksheet:
